Chapter 136 A Pleasant Experience for Both Body and Mind
Three o'clock in the morning
Most of the city was already dark at this time, except for the hospital, which was brightly lit.

As night fell, passing through the silent corridor, a garden that seemed about to be swallowed by the darkness came into view.

In the garden, only lonely streetlights and armchairs keep you company.

At this moment, one person stands out in the darkness, and Lu Xiao immediately spotted Tang Ying sitting in the garden.

As Lu Xiao approached Tang Ying, even though Tang Ying didn't speak, he could already sense her dejection.

"Senior sister, go and take a rest."

Lu Xiao wouldn't tell Tang Ying that he had searched all over the hospital before finally finding her here.

"I can't rest. As soon as I close my eyes, the image of the little girl begging me to save her parents appears in my mind."

Tang Ying's eyes were vacant; she was like a soulless shell, just sitting there in the chair.

Seeing Tang Ying's self-reproachful expression, Lu Xiao gently comforted her, "You've done your best, and so have the others..."

"I know all of that, but... but I just can't get over that hurdle in my heart..."

The thought of another person like her in this world brought tears to Tang Ying's eyes.

"I feel... I'm truly useless. I actually let a child watch helplessly as her parents left forever..."

"What's the use of everything I've learned over the years?!"

Tang Ying cried harder and harder as she spoke, helplessly covering her face with her hands.

In the past, Tang Ying was always proud and radiant in front of Lu Xiao. He had never seen Tang Ying so vulnerable before.

Seeing Tang Ying like this, Lu Xiao felt bad too. He couldn't care less about anything else at the moment, so he gently hugged Tang Ying in his arms to comfort her.

"Senior sister, you have saved so many people. In my heart, you will always be the best. What happened today was just fate."

Lu Xiao spoke softly, hoping that Tang Ying would take his words to heart.

When people are vulnerable, they often don't want to break free from the warm embrace that provides them, and Tang Ying was no exception.

She didn't even realize that she was leaning against Lu Xiao's arm.

"What good is saving so many people? I can never save myself... I watch tragedy repeat itself again."

“Countless tragedies happen every day in this world, and they may have similarities.”

After Lu Xiao finished speaking, Tang Ying remained silent. After a long pause, Lu Xiao hesitated for a moment before speaking again:
“I believe that the doctors who saved your parents back then did their best and had a clear conscience. Just like you did your best today and have a clear conscience.”

"Is that so?" Tang Ying finally spoke again, but her voice was still choked with sobs.

“You never blamed the doctors for not saving your parents, and you even became a doctor yourself. Today’s little girl certainly won’t blame you either; she knows you did your best.”

“She knows I tried my best and won’t blame me, but I blame myself for being incompetent.”

Lu Xiao didn't want Tang Ying to waste her time like this, so he changed his tone and pushed Tang Ying away.

"Tang Ying! Wake up! Were you the main force in today's rescue? Neither Director Wang nor Director Li admitted their incompetence, so who do you think you are?"

While Tang Ying was still a little dazed, Lu Xiao spoke again: "She asked you for help because she just happened to see you. Don't think too highly of yourself. If that young lady could beg the King of Hell, he wouldn't even give you a second glance!"

"Lu Xiao! You!"

This tactic was indeed much more effective than words of comfort, and Tang Ying's tears stopped immediately.

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'What did I say?' Only when you reach Director Wang's level will you have the right to doubt yourself." Tang Ying didn't know how to respond for a moment, so she yelled at Lu Xiao, "Go back to your shift and don't leave me with this mess!"

Lu Xiao's barrage of questions was like a cold winter wind, making Tang Ying much more sober. Indeed, she was not in a position to deny herself at this moment.

However, Lu Xiao's presence was like a warm sun in winter, and he truly made Tang Ying feel much better.

The sun was high in the sky, scorching it as if baking the city, but the room, shrouded in curtains, was utterly silent.

The clothes scattered around the room looked suspicious, and the crumpled sheets and askew pillows suggested that the two people in bed had been quite active that night.

Perhaps she had slept enough, or perhaps she was hungry, Ming Wei slowly opened her sleepy eyes.

In her line of sight, Pei Ming's face was very close to hers, and she could hear Pei Ming's even breathing.

The scene from last night flashed through her mind: Pei Ming's passionate kisses traveling from her ear down her neck to her chest...

His hands roamed restlessly over her body, and she responded to Pei Ming's advances, intensifying his desire.

Driven by the most primal desires of the human body and brain, they naturally became entangled together.

The sounds of pleasure from last night seemed to echo in her ears, and Mingwei really wanted to slap her own head.

What am I thinking about so early in the morning?!

Seemingly sensing the movement of the person in his arms, Pei Ming reluctantly opened his eyes. He just wanted to hold Ming Weiyi and sleep a little longer.

As soon as Pei Ming opened his eyes, he saw Ming Weiyi staring at him, and he hugged Ming Weiyi even tighter.

"Honey, are you awake?"

Last night, when the two were making love, Pei Ming called her "wife" in a very seductive and low voice, which made Ming Weiyi think of some lewd things again.

"What time is it? I'm so hungry..."

After their in-depth conversation last night, Ming Wei no longer needed to be shy with Pei Ming, and she openly reached out to stroke Pei Ming's chest muscles.

She wanted to make Pei Ming fully awake so that she could boss him around.

Sure enough, Ming Weiyi's caresses were very effective. Pei Ming couldn't stand Ming Weiyi's teasing, especially since they were both naked.

Pei Ming turned sideways and pinned Ming Weiyi down on the bed again, looking into her eyes with a wicked smile.

"You started flirting with me right after I woke up?"

"Don't overthink it, I just wanted to wake you up so you could get me something to eat, I'm so hungry," Ming Wei said, hooking her arms around Pei Ming's neck.

Upon hearing this, Pei Ming saw an opportunity and said, "It's not impossible for me to go now, but you have to give me something in return."

Ming Wei pinched Pei Ming's cheek in a cute yet fierce way, "You still want something in return! So I let you sleep with me for nothing last night?"

"Yesterday is yesterday, now is now, and the market has changed."

Pei Ming still had a smile on his face. It was quite amusing to tease Ming Wei before he succeeded.

"Okay, what do you want?"

"I want you to pay me back with your body now."

Ming Wei knew perfectly well that Pei Ming's head was definitely not filled with anything serious right now. However, after the pleasurable experience she had last night, she couldn't be serious either.

Seeing that Mingwei also remained silent, Pei Ming automatically assumed that she had agreed. It was a perfect match.
